The article assesses the scale of foreign direct investment of Chinese companies in foreign markets, including Russia. It is established that the strategy of "going abroad" at the moment has impressive results, and China's investment activity will only increase, even despite the opposition from foreign countries and the presence of problems with the support of potential foreign investors in China itself. A special role in the implementation of this strategy should play a systematic support for exports, which is an important component of China's foreign economic policy

One of the most resilient ideas introduced to the analysis of economic and political change under colonialism and imperialism is the “comprador” and, by extension, the “comprador bourgeoisie.” The comprador in essence embodies or internalizes the basic theoretical problem of the peripheral political economy: economic activity oriented primarily for the benefit of the other.1 By strict definition, compradors are native agents or partners of foreign investors who operate in some form in the local economy. However, in the theoretical context of assessing the possibilities for local industrial development, compradors represent forces that hinder change. As “agents of foreign imperialism,” they act “against the interest of the national economy.”2

This study investigates the determinants of foreign portfolio investment in Jordan using series of data covering the period from 2000 to 2016. Eight independent variables were employed. They are: aggregate economic activity, inflation, interest rate differentiation, stock market performance, risk diversification, country creditworthiness, governance, and corruption. The regression results show that good and stable macroeconomic environment attracts foreign investors. In addition, foreign investors prefer to invest in the capital market which provides an opportunity of risk diversification. A country that has enough liquidity to meet its obligation, and has well-governed environment attracts more portfolio investment. The results of the study provide empirical evidence about the factors that have a significant impact on the flow of foreign portfolio investment to Jordan. These factors can be utilized when formulating polices by the specialized authorities who are seeking to attract more portfolio investment.

It increasingly appears that the decline in global economic activity that set in during the latter half of 2000 has started to come to an end. Trade levels have begun to rise modestly, consumer and business confidence have strengthened and the present accommodative stance of macroeconomic policies is clearly having a positive impact on demand in many of the major industrialised economies, especially in North America. Global economic activity is now estimated to have risen by 2.4 per cent last year on a PPP basis, approximately half a percentage point more than previously thought. This upward revision largely reflects the strength of domestic demand within many developing economies, with growth remaining especially strong in China and India and also in several other transition economies. In contrast, the volume of international trade in 2001 appears to have been largely unchanged from a year earlier, as we have predicted for some time.

The article considers the interrelationship between external and internal factors of economic growth and their influence on the Russian economy at the turn of 2012-2013. Slowing of basic macroeconomic indicators is connected with fast reduction of financing sources - the investment pause of the biggest Russian companies and a sharp decrease of state investment. Besides, foreign investors withdrew their money from financial assets of Russian companies. The article presents the quality assessment of changes in domestic economic activity and volumes of financial flows between Russia and the rest of the world, taking into account possible impact of geopolitical shock caused by the events around Ukraine.

Pursuant to the definition proposed by Eurostat, foreign direct investment takes place when a resident entity in one economy seeks to obtain a lasting interest in an enterprise resident in another economy. A lasting interest implies the existence of a long-term relationship between the direct investor and the enterprise, and an investor’s significant influence on the management of the enterprise. Foreign investors do not only exert impact on a given company’s board of directors but, importantly, provide production capital in privatized companies. Additionally, they equip them with both know-how on the performed economic activity and technical know-how. They send their specialists, who introduce international standards in daughter companies smoothly. In this paper, the author deals with the impact of a foreign investor on the development of Bank Pekao. A literature review is applied for this aim. It covers a detailed analysis of transaction documentation and post-audit statements of the Supreme Audit Office and delegations of the Ministry of State Treasury. Thanks to research, it can be assessed how UniCredito Italiano has positively influenced the operation of Polish bank after the acquisition of shares. Thereby, the results of this study contest popular opinion about exploitation of domestic employees by foreign companies.

Attention of the reader is offered actual problems existing at the present time when assessing the economic activity of enterprises and the resulting difficulties in attracting financial resources from potential domestic and foreign investors. A lot of Russian entities have problems in the methodology of assessing. One of the topical problems is the problem of choosing the optimal structure of capital, i.e. determination of the ratio of own and long-term borrowed funds. Production reserves in the Russian accounting system are either goods purchased for later sale, or raw materials used for production. For a financial manager, stocks are immobilized funds, i.e. funds withdrawn from circulation. Without such an immobilization is indispensable, however, indirect losses should be minimized. To minimize the costs of maintaining current stocks at the proper level, the approach based on the concept of the optimal order (delivery) order is used. In the theory of inventory management, special models have been developed to determine the volume of one order lot and the frequency of orders.
